Today is a special day for Logos Hope! Today marks the 5 year anniversary of the ship Norrona (changed to Logos Hope) being bought by Operation Mobilization.

Now we are back in her "home" port of registry, Torshavn, Faroe Islands. It's o.k., be honest; you know you don't know where that is! I didn't know it even existed until I came to the ship. Look NW a bit from Denmark, I think - I'm really not sure... and kind of near the Shetland Islands... maybe I should look on a map myself... :D It's a group of Islands owned by Denmark (but shhhhh, don't tell them I said that!) with a population of only 48,000. The unique thing about this place is, there are no trees. And they eat whale and have lots of sheep.

About Me

I am an energetic, joy-filled, city-turned-country girl living my dream of being a wife, mom, writer (if blogs count) and home school teacher-to-be! My husband is my best friend and we have a passion for managing finances well and helping others do the same. I love kids, kittens, shoes (boots especially), traveling, descriptive writing, Laura Ingalls Wilder, kinesthetic learning, wild adventures and Starbucks Java Chip Frappes! I am already adding books to our children's library and enjoy researching curriculums, learning styles, and things related to teaching. I write about the funny, the serious, the raw and the real of our family, faith and life as a mom while offering tips, resources, devotionals and community to equip, empower and encourage moms considering or beginning home educating (like me)! I have visited 34 countries (or so, I've lost count) in my 22 years and just because I plan to 'stay home' with our kids, it doesn't mean we won't go places! Come join me on my biggest adventure yet... motherhood!
